Weinstein is scum, but you gotta admit..reading between the lines it seems that most if not all his conquests were in the end voluntary casting couch with lots of pressure and as further evidence, nobody including all the big time actresses pretending to be victims now had a problem with it for years. Whats a bigger deal to me is the attempted coverup and intimidation afterward.

Sure its scummy but I’m not really sure I would want to go down the path toward making pressuring someone into having sex even with a lot of pressure a crime. I always got the feeling the worst bits were chopped up to give an out of context feeling. This is really the corrupt establishment Left vs fanatic new radical feminist Left that wants to make sex illegal. Its really hard to root for either side tbh.

Basically, the women were very highly-paid hookers. Going forward, as long as directors pay aspiring actresses in cash not exceeding typical hooker pay scales, they should be A-OK. I am diametrically opposed to both Weinstein’s politics and lifestyle, but this prosecution is just nuts, taking #MeToo and #BelieveHer to its illogical conclusion.

I watched about half hour of the trial. Listened to the bimbo who said she was raped, then had parties, then kept calling Weinstein so that she may further her career...

'nugh said. Everyone knew about the casting couch. Everyone. Even those who weren't in the business. The bimbos are making millions now because they swapped dna with the dude. Now they're attacking the guy that made them filthy rich?!! Maybe they should return the money before they complain about their "audition".

Real rape victims don't have a choice about the couch. It just happens, unexpectedly. They don't get compensated with furthering their careers.

I, seriously was hoping he would get off scott free :)

BTW, I'm a female.

Agree on that. And I am not a fan of digging up something from many years ago with no proof.

If these women in all these cases think they were assaulted then they need to say so at the time.
